Casio men G-Shock G-5600UE-1JF [G-Shock 20 ATM Water Resistant Solar G-5600 Series] Shipped from Japan

Low profile, classic-geek styling. Lightweight and comfortable. Easy to read. Self-sufficient (solar powered) Water resistant. G-shock durability (TBD). To the yard. To the office. Running. Riding. Traveling. I love this watch!

I have owned 30+ watches and this one is the one I would choose if I could only wear one the rest of my life. Just an extremely useful watch. It does it all.

Work as expected. All that need for daily and trips - no unneeded functionality. Solar battery - minimum ten years without problems. One point - note timer doesnt have auto-repeat functionality. My watch lost nearly 11 sec in a month - its expected (+/- 15 sec/month by documentation) but wanted less :-).

Tough watch, with classic looks. Buttons a little bit tough to operate.

I was so impressed by my first G-Shock, a DW-5600, that I upgraded to this the G-56001UE, which is by and large the solar version of the DW-5600 with more alarms and world time. The watch arrived quickly to Australia, in perfect condition and works exactly as described. I havent yet taken this deep in the ocean, only some pool swimming to about 1.8 metres deep. I do wish Casio would include the auto-repeat countdown timer which is what my DW-5600 has, thats my only bug bear, but I knew that before I ordered the watch. Incidentally, to replace the battery and pressure test my DW-5600 it was going to cost AUD117 ($117 Australian dollars), so I figured Im better off spending a bit more and buying the solar powered version. The jeweller told me it takes an hour, which is why its so expensive to replace the battery and pressure test the watch. So to readers considering saving money by buying a non-solar G-Shock, check how much it will cost to replace and pressure test the battery. When I lived in New Zealand it was only NZD40 to replace the battery and pressure test the DW-5600.

Amazing lightweight, rugged, super accurate solar watch. Been on the hunt for a replacement watch that wasn’t analog and needed something that didn’t need battery replacement, had superior water resistance, easy legibility and a backlight. I currently don’t care about the stop watch or timer functions, but having world time, and a bunch of different time zones to pick from was great. I’m in PST Zone and the watch was set to Los Angeles time zone and did not even need set up, showed the Correct date too. I had a hard time deciding between the 6 band solar and just the solar version, and I couldn’t see myself traveling across the country or world anytime soon so, the solar model fit the bill. Plus, if I ever traveled, all of have to do is select a preset time zone and it would correct for wherever I am in the world with a couple clicks of a button. I used to wear a W800H-1AV and it would constantly break after about a year of wear, so I upgraded to the solar G Shock. It’s no bigger than an Apple Watch or a Fitbit versa 3 and it’s lightweight and feels good on the hand. It has a better band than the W800H-1AV. I bought mine from the seller on Amazon ‘Forever Seconds’ out of Chandler Arizona. Order came super fast. Ordered March 28th, and showed up March 30th around 10am via UPS. Seller had the option for faster shipping and I paid extra for UPS 2nd day air. Otherwise the package would have been delivered estimated 7 days out. I’m really happy with the purchase and hope it lasts as long as some of the other G Shock owners. For $95.78 not including the extra I paid for shipping, this rugged SHTF watch is well worth the purchase.

Great upgrade from the previous model. The new backlight is much better! Excellent service from the seller too.

The watch is almost perfect but the countdown isnt auto repeat. I used auto repeat count down on my old 5600E (Module 1545) to start and stop several training routine each 15 minutes or to have medicine each 8 hours. The led light dont bright at the sound alarm neither on sig alarm or countdowm alarm. The manual come only in Japan language and dont have international guarrantie card, only in Japan according to vendor. The others function are sufficient and all ok.

Very good watch for small wrist

Great functional watch. Mine showed up on M as the charge level so I put it outside. It got up to H so I brought it in shortly after, then it was back to M. Later I spent a few hours in the sun and it has been on H ever since. Awesome watch for sure.
